"Even when opportunity knocks, a man still has to get up off his seat and open the door." --Anonymous
I have, placed before me, an incredible opportunity. The opportunity to do (almost) anything I want. Problem is, opportunity is a lot of work! And a lot of disappointment. I suddenly felt like bursting into song... What doesn't kill me makes me stronger, stand a little taller, doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone! (Thank you Kelly Clarkson) Once, twice, even multiple times, everyone has this opportunity placed before them. And they always seem to rise to the occassion. What does this tell me? It tells me I can too. I can put everything I have into this opportunity and hope and pray that something awesome comes of it. So, what have I got to lose? I'll put myself out there, open every door I can possibly find, maybe even open some windows, and see what's on the other side. Who knows where this opportunity will take me? Undoubtedly to new, awesome adventures.
So, what about you? What are you going to do when you see opportunity? Are you going to mistake it for a problem? Are you going to see a closed window instead of noticing the five open doors? Or are you going to sieze what is in front of you and make every moment worth living, regardless of your current circumstances? It's up to you. What have you got to lose?
